The Capacity to Think

God created animals, fish, and birds, but he didn’t assign their names. Whatever Adam called them is what we call them today: lion, tiger, humpback whale, bluebird, all these names and more came from Adam. God created humans with the ability to think, reason, and problem solve, but he wanted Adam to see his ability also. When we use our brain to serve God’s purposes, we also glorify God. Our old nature will think perverse and corrupt thoughts which lead to perverse and corrupt actions, but the mind that is led by the Spirit thinks good and does good. When we use our brains as Adam did, we can fulfill the purposes of God, bless the world, and bless others.
